Everything you need to know about Jason Statham’s new Sky Original movie, Mutiny

Jason Statham is back in business and will be leading the cast of new Sky Original action-thriller, Mutiny.

Partnering with Jean-François Richet – director of Plane and The Emperor of Paris – Statham is also producing the movie with his company, Punch Palace Productions.

Speaking of acquiring the movie, Julia Stuart, Director of Original Film for Sky, said:

“Mutiny was an irresistible project for us – a perfect combination of two action powerhouses Jason Statham and Jean-François Richet, which we know is going to deliver an unforgettable experience for viewers."

“The Beekeeper was a huge hit for us, so it’s fantastic to add another Statham-powered title to our slate and to work alongside Lionsgate to bring this high-octane project to international audiences.”

Here’s everything you need to know about the film.

What is Mutiny about?

Mutiny is a high-octane thriller starring Jason Statham as Cole Reed, an ex-Special Forces and New York cop who has fallen from grace.

Now working in private security for his friend Tibu, a billionaire Thai shipping tycoon, life seems quiet – until Tibu winds up dead.

Now in the frame for Tibu’s murder, Cole has to go on the run and find the real culprit.

Escaping on one of the freight ships, soon Cole is facing off against the cops that are after him, and uncovering corruption and an international conspiracy that goes deeper than he could have ever expected.
